Fuel Mix Storage I

Use only approved plastic fuel containers for your fuel mix of the smallest size you can stand and always keep your container tightly sealed. Sealed plastic containers are less likely to collect water (sweat) on their walls, introducing it into your fuel. Two-cycle engines do not run well with water in their fuel. Using smaller containers will cause you to re-mix fresh fuel more often and reduce the incidence of stale fuel. Pour the proper amounts of gas and oil into your fuel container and shake the can well before each use.
